This course will focus on the theories and practices in the “Basic Principles” of Digital Photography as it relates to Law Enforcement, Medicolegal Death Investigators, and Fire Investigators. Following the National Academy of Sciences report, increased attention into fundamental forensics has been made by Defense Attorney’s. Upon the completion of this course, the student will have an understanding of the Digital File Management Procedures, the proper methods of documenting a crime scene, the accepted procedures for the 1st Responder Photography, review the different camera settings, and understand image documentation in “low light” environments typically encountered. Students will have several short practical exercises and a Crime Scene Photography Exercise. A written test will conclude the course to evaluate what they have learned. Students should expect some graphic images in the course presentation. In every past course, veteran officers have been surprised at how easy it can be to obtain usable images in low light environments.This class is held during a “traditional” middle shift so the students get plenty of “Hands On” practical experience during low light and night hours.
****Students are encouraged to bring a flashlight, a digital camera, and dress-down.****
Class size is limited to 20 students. This course has been APPROVED for eight (8) hours of continuing education by the Pennsylvania Coroners’ Education Board under the provisions of Act 22 of 1988. ID: 2021-7
